In anticipation of the March 28th Broadway preview of her musical, Hell’s Kitchen, Alicia Keys is sharing the single Kaleidoscope, which is a collaboration done with Maleah Joi Moon. It was released earlier today (March 22nd), and as such, is now available on all streaming platforms.

The exhilarating, joyful, coming-of-age Hell’s Kitchen is all about chasing your dreams, honoring your roots, knowing your identity, and finding your voice. It was directed by Tony Award nominee Michael Greif, with choreography by Camille A. Brown, who is also a Tony Award nominee, and it’s filled with new original music performed by Alicia Keys.

Two of the fiercest women in rhythm-and-blues, Ashanti and Monica, will be the headlining acts at the upcoming R&B Music Experience at the Wintrust Arena in Chicago on March 16. The ladies will be joined by Silk, Danny Boy, Tamar Braxton, and 702. This is another Global Events Production that will be hosted by DJ A1.

This spring, R&B singer, songwriter, actor, and dancer Omarion will headline the VBZ on VBZ Tour, with support from Vedo, Tone Stith, WanMor, and Jastin Martin. The former lead vocalist of the boy band B2K will be hitting twenty cities across America. Below are all the confirmed dates and locations.
